Flat Roofs in Accrington Landlords
Landlords calling us are usually balancing three things at once — tenant safety, void time, and the invoice trail their accountant needs.
How this job usually looks for landlords
On flat roof repair & installation jobs for landlords, the priorities are usually predictable — and different from a walk-in domestic call. Here's what we plan around on a Accrington tenanted terraces job.
- Same-week attendance to avoid escalating tenant complaints
- Documented make-safe so the property meets basic habitability
- Itemised VAT invoices addressed to the landlord or letting agent
- Photographs before and after every visit for the tenancy file
- Options that protect the roof for the next 5–10 year hold
The flat roofs work itself
Most failed flat roofs were never installed properly in the first place — wrong falls, badly bonded laps, no upstands. We strip back to the deck, replace any rotten boards, set correct falls, and bond the new EPDM or GRP membrane in one continuous piece wherever possible. The result is a flat roof that lasts decades, not seasons.
How the flat roofs job runs for landlords
We coordinate access directly with the tenant, work around agreed hours, and never leave the property open overnight. Payment terms and invoice format are agreed in writing before we start.
Typical duration: 1–4 days depending on size — most domestic extensions are completed in two days.
